Considering all of the buzz around generative AI in the last year or so, it's easy to forget that we have in fact been using it for over a decade. Since 2011's first instalment of Siri, we have gotten used to AI helping us control our phones.  Of course, there's one problem. It's not actually as advanced as you'd hope. As it stands, Google Assistant is just something that pops up on my phone when I press the wrong button.

That's where the like of ChatGPT comes in. These chatbots are much chattier and more competent at tasks like writing (gulp), generating images and even coding. Of course, Google has its own equivalent, Google Bard, and after the ChatGPT app launched on Android, Google looks to be bringing a serious AI upgrade of its own to the best Android phones.
